?The Industrial Revolution brought more harm than good to people who lived in the 18th century?. I disagree with this statement. With the changes in economic and social conditions, many workers suffered terribly, but I believe the benefits it brought to the people were incomparable.

Mama says, ?I can kill a hog as mercilessly as a man?(174). Walker uses this to show that Mama is not a typical female of that time, she is not afraid to work with animals or in the field. Mama feels her daughters are either too helpless or pretentious to work. ?I never had an education myself, after second grade the school was closed?(175) while Mama says that she is uneducated, I see her as Jim in ?The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn? in that she is uneducated but smart, because of Mama?s honest toward both her daughters.
